Joking Apart

Synopsis/Company

Richard and Anthea are an ideal couple. Attractive, charming, successful in business, loving parents and most generous of hosts. Who can't help loving them? Who, secretly can't help envying them? But such beautiful people can be dangerous. As their friends, neighbours and business partners discover when, like moths around a candle, they are fatally attracted to this fascinating but ultimately destructive flame.
